said Mr.. Deviue, "tha. all the robbing was
done by people on the train. The best
opportunity for such acts occurred before
the people with lights arrived from Piper
City and Chatsworth." Mr.. Deyine's
viewa are supported by one circumstance
not heretofore made at all prominent In
the dispatches. The excuraion was q
cheap one, and among those who took ad.
vantage OF the rates were many who at
least would not be relieved OF suspicion
because OF their social position. The rail-
road authorities have nothing To say on
the subject Of the robbsrles. s,3 Tl' M
QUEER ACTIONS OF OFFICIALS.
The management is blamed because
there was not at the wreck any represen.
tativs OF the road with tho special duty OF
looking after the persons and property OF
the injured, and not the less blamed that
10 onv appeared until long alter the acci.
dent to supervise the work OF rescue. That
was all left the efforts Of the townspeoplo
here and the unlajured passengers. That
the railroad company has been negligent
Ia guarding the property taken from the
wreck is cure. Many valises have been
picked up In the waiting-room OF the depot
for Identification purposes, and examina.

all privilege. People who have lost no
friends have invaded the room and have
not only pried into valises slready partly
open, but have broken the locks
OF such as specially attracted their
curiosity. A Tribune d, Representa-
tive saw man who had to explain
his name to the onlookers break open two
or three valises, and finally, when he
stumbled upon valuable set OF sleeve
buttone, calmly appropriated them, say.
ing thoy. were the property OF ladies' OF
his party who were injured. He was un.
known, but walked OF coolly with the
jewelry. 1t was subsequently learnod that
this particular man told the truth, but
there was nothing to indicate the same
thing OF the many who had examined the
handbags or valises before him or who
followed him In 80 doing. The railroad
management has certainly been negligent
in the details Of attending to the welfare
OF the victims OF its culvert. The only
place where real enterprise has been
shown Is in the clearing OF the tracks for
the passage OF trains. Size

PEORIA, ILL, August 14.-To-dsy has
been q day Of mourning in Paoria-crape
on the doors, the dead literally blocking
the underlakera' establishments, and sor.
row, weeping aud utter desolstion all
over the city. The auddenness aud hor-
ror Of the calamity are npsettiug mems
reasons. There are seyersl here in the
city who lost friends and relatives in the
disaster, whose names for manifest reasons
it will not do to mention, for whom the
worst is feared. The surprise Of Friday
was terrible, and many we're driven to the
verge OF distraction, owing to tho impoB-
'sibility Of getting advicss about their
friends by telegraph. The friends OF James
Deal, who lost his wife in the great disss.
ter, were working with him ali night. he
eczema to be totally stupe6ed, and sits like
one who has lost all interest in the world
and its affairs. He ia denied the legacy
Of tears, and last night it was found neceB-
sary to put him under the influence Of
opiates. In addition to his wife, Mr.. Deal
lost q sister in the wreck. william Ball
is in a similar unfortunate state Of mind.
Ernest Zirmer, whose mother persisted at
Chatsworth, is nearly distracted, and
others not mentioned are nearly on the
verge OF insanity. 4 y. 493i-5.E So

II CnArswoRrH, Ills, j; August l4.-That
some Of the dead and come Of the living
in the wrecked train were robbed does
not admit Of doubt, but that some Of the
tales Of robbery have been exaggerated is
also certain. There wau in circulation in
Piper City to-day wild story OF the dis
covory near the wreck Of the fingers Of q
woman evidently cut OF by an Ak and
with tho supposed intention OF securing
tbs rings on the hands Of the dead. The
tale did not have tho remotest founda-
ton in fact. Other stories are more
substantial. Mrs. Or. Hayden, Of Fort
Madison, Ia, found her hand Ratchel, lost
in the wreck, hut a pocketbook In 1t at
the time It WIS lost was gone when tho
satchel was returned. Search was being
made this morning for ss!chel belonging
to Mrs. ChriBtian Zimmerman and Mrs.
Valdeeo, In WHICH were three Gatehes,
that OF a friend being also put in for safe
ty while travelling, and $3.50 in currency.
Latest ina uiries made do not show that
the watches and money were recovered.
Upon the body Of John Zsiter, Of Pekin.
when examined by bis friends were found
his silver watch and some Talueless pocket
isiuketa, but no money. He was sup
posed to have had ,$75 with him, and Ger.
sa;nly should not be found penniless at
the beginning OF the pleasure trip. One
a. two other casao are reported where
pocketbooka were recovered, but with
only portion Of the money coatAnod IN

HuRYlNG THE DEAD,

Tbs undertakers Of the city have more
than they can attend to. Not only have
they the Peoria dead to arrange for burial,
but others who will be shipped home to
their friends. n. iifias vs. I
"a All last night the death.carts were rum
bling through the city, trains bearing the
dead arriving at l2 80 and 2:lo. In many
INSTANCES the dead we're taken to their late
homes. But the condition Of the bodies
was such, owing to the terrible way in
which they were maugled and the great
heat Of the weather, that 1t was neces-
sary to send for the undertakers to re-
move them. The crowd fingered around
the Union Depot all night, notwithstand.
there WAS no possibility that trains could
arrive after 2:s0 o'clock before morning.

OF course the big turkey will suffer. It's
a natural consequence of Thanksgiving.
Everybody will have turkey, but everybody
won't have fox hunt This little slice of
enjoyment is reserved for the Hon. Bill
Milligan, Hon. Tom McDermott, Hon. Sam
Parr and the other Honorables Of the 9 lite
who will have joyous time. And when
Tom puts on his Dolly Warden pants and
blows on the little bugle, then lookout for
winded horsehesh and weary CANNES.
Hon. Tom MacKinlay, he Of the enlongated
lower extremeties, will, together with Hon.
Jas. Milligan, jr., and other toboggan sliders,
open toboggan ranch on Monday, and
expect to reap a harvest Of slides large
enough to go around among the public by
the 25th.
Billy Taylor, Louis Hess and Charlie lrion
also have gigantic scheme on hand. We
promised not to give it away, but as it's
frosty morning, the public shall have it. They
have 40 large ostriches from the California
ostrich farms on the road, and will give a
series of ostrich races in the afternoon, to
give variety to things.
The Undine Hose Company will give a
grand ball Thanksgiving Eve, "wednesday
as has been their custom for these many
years. 1t promises to eclipse anything at
tempted in the past, and If the preparations
count for anything, Ottawa will see some
thing worth its while.
Co. d. will open the skating rink to the
public in the afternoon and evening, and as
the skates have been recently repaired
everybody may have good time.
